“I know my needs. What I need from a bartender I get from Res and what I need from an automobile, I get from this new Cordoba.”

That’s a mostly private joke between Res and me, but no question, the man is Soft Corinthian Leather. 🙂

Good luck to Res, Mark and the rest of the staff.

He is 75 now, and every now and then, I take him out to have a few drinks. The comments on the way home are always amusing; “Bartending is a dying art.” I’ll never go there again.” How long I gotta wait!” When he met RES; “THAT GUY CAN TEND BAR!” Good luck Res, I will miss you.
